MERMAID BEDDING for GIRLS

What is a mom to do when her daughter finally kicks her Little Mermaid bedding set to the curb? In these tough economic times when many families have a decorating budget is stretched to the limits and ready to pop at any moment, tossing out all those expensive ocean bedroom decorations to change the décor is enough to give you a pain in your head long before it hits your checkbook. It’s sad to say, but even my old standby, painting the bedroom walls is looking more expensive than it once did.

How can you make your daughter happy and salvage your under the sea bedroom décor?

You might give updating the toddler mermaid comforter set to a mermaid bedding that is better suited to a teenage girl. It can be tricky to find a collection that is not too (ahem) mature for a tween or preteen as mermaids by nature are not known for their taste in clothing. The best we can hope for is long, beautiful hair that has been artfully arranged or some carefully positioned seashells in strategic areas for modesty’s sake.

How lucky is it for us that designers searching for new ocean and beach theme bedding designs decided to dress mermaids up in their Sunday best and give me something to work so that I won’t pull my own hair out when faced with decorating teenage girls bedrooms with mermaid bedding sets. Imagine the surprise on the faces of tween as well as teen girls when I show them that there is hope beyond Ariel and friends! Not to mention how happy mom (and dad) will be that only minor adjustments are necessary to give their daughter’s bedroom a makeover into an underwater retreat possibly getting a few more years out of existing bedroom decor! And the beauty is that tropical fish and sea creatures will be right at home with nobody the wiser that they were once used as decorations to complement an ocean baby bedding set for girls .

DOLPHIN BEDDING SETS for GIRLS

After a lifetime of lounging in a pink room, your little mermaid might enjoy a set of dolphin bedding for girls. Moms are making the necessary adjustments for bedrooms and shopping for decor and bedding sets that present a pretty picture in shades of ocean blue.

I have been amazed recently at the maturity as well as the large number of eco-minded young ladies who appreciate the beauty of these gentle creatures to the point that they have a wish not only to swim with them when on vacation but to commune with them on a daily basis in their rooms. And if the fish themed decorating trends that I have observed stay the course; sea creatures don’t stop with the dolphin bedding sets.

Once the girls have their hearts set on a dolphin bedroom theme, there is no such thing as too much or too many. To see dolphin area rugs, lamps and wall decorations in addition to whichever set of dolphin bedding for girls they choose are not out of the question. As a decorator, even I might think that decorating with this many dolphins would set my teeth on edge. But rather than coming across as confusing, somehow the combination of dolphin bedspread and decor comes together in a serene and peaceful fashion that seems natural. So, when your teenage girl issues a request for a dolphin bed in a bag, get ready for the house to be overrun with sea creatures and fish for a while. The good news is that it may serve to help settle your nerves and lower your blood pressure.

UNDER THE SEA BEDDING and BEDROOM DECORATIONS

What are your options in under the sea bedding and bedroom decorations? I have some decorating ideas that will have dreams of tropical fish and coral reefs dancing (or should I say swimming?) in your teenage girl’s dreams no matter what your budget may be.

STYLE

It might surprise you to know that the landscape that is hidden under the waves of the ocean is just as diverse as the one we are familiar with on dry land. The species of sea creatures and fish number in the thousands if not millions even with the rate of extinction rising at an alarming rate. Before you begin the decorative process, ask your sea loving princess what her preference might be.
Once your tween moves beyond Sponge Bob and Little Mermaid under the sea bedding and decor, her taste in under the sea bedding will more than likely be less fanciful and more about sun, surf, sailing and sea creatures.

FISH

The first thing that comes to mind when designing an underwater bedroom would be fish. The question is whether angel fish, whales or dolphin bedroom decorations are preferred. Environmentally active individuals appreciate the beauty of whale bedding sets far beyond the blue, pink and purple whale under the sea crib bedding sets of the baby’s nursery. And I have noticed an increase in requests for dolphin bedding sets since swimming with these intelligent sea creatures became a popular vacation activity. Then others seem to want their bedroom to be decorated as one big salt water aquarium with an assortment of tropical fish swimming in underwater murals and in the fabric design of their under the sea bedding set.

COLOR

When decorating an under the sea bedroom for kids, color isn’t an issue as we mentioned earlier in this decorating article. But once children reach the teenage years, they prefer more realistic decorations. As you might imagine, killer whale and dolphin bedding sets offer decorating possibilities in shades of gray, black, ocean blue with touches of white and yellow. For more color, focus on decorations and fabrics printed with tropical fish and coral reefs.


UNDER THE SEA DECORATIONS and DECOR

Decorators on a budget need only to organize a trip to the beach or a scuba diving expedition to gather unique and interesting underwater decorations. Seashells, starfish and driftwood displayed on the walls framed as art or displayed on shelves are natural, appropriate and for the most part, free.

In some locations, the ocean is always azure blue and the sunshine is warm on the beach. The sad thing is that there are lots of teenagers stuck in the lands of ice and snow and these girls can only fantasize about lounging at the seaside or snorkeling alongside the kissing fish and seahorses that frolick in their underwater worlds swimming amongst the shipwrecks and coral reefs.

The way that many teen girls weather the long winter months without falling into deep, dark despair is to decorate their bedrooms like a tropical paradise. Seahorse finials on the bedposts and lamps that are shaped like swimming seahorses with starfish accents match the tropical fish quilted on the comforters and duvet covers. A seashell shaped bedside area rug is a nice touch that will keep those tootsies warm until spring break!
